Motion in Moderation - Motivation through Activity

At this time of year you can't move without #OperationTransformation, #BiggestLoser type programs on TV and all across the internet information on weight loss, best diet to follow and all kinds of spurious advice.A lot of these programs and diets are 'quick fixes'. Feel good for a while, lose some weight but then the old habits slip back in slowly but surely and all that hard work goes out the window.

For many people simply being a little bit more active and being a little bit more conscious of their food (intake and quality) is enough to achieve personal goals that will be of benefit to your health in the long term.As a child, did you have one of these?

It was a way of recording what you were doing and rewarding you for results.

Every fridge had one and the sense of achievement when you got that new toy, or treat or trip to the zoo was like magic.

Are you ready for the grown up version?
